Odd Thoughts from a High Desk

A Voice

So is this a blog a shout out into the void, never to be read by anyone other than me?

I thinks so, there are so many blogs by so many people why would anyone find mine?

More to the point why would anyone want to read what I have said?

Dose it matter that no one other than me will read this? the answer has to be no!

I am not really writing this for anyone other than me, I may read this when I am much older, I many never read it, it may be read by one of those internet bots, what they will make of this I just dont know all I do know is that I have at this time and date put down some of my thoughts and that to me is great as now those thoughts are not lost to the moment the will live on for a while.

I suspect that at sometime in the future Google or what ever it is called at the time will notice that I have not updated this blog in a long time or even accessed it ( probably because I am dead) it will send a warning but it will in the end delete it and so my thoughts of today will finally be gone lost forever.....

Eden Mill St Andrews Shipwreck

So just to prove that this blog is still alive sort of....

Just had a new beer to me, which is called Shipwreck and its by Eden Mill brewery of St Andrews all I can say is that its a nice dink with good flavor and that it is 6.2% which these days makes it a strong beer?

Mainly as most beers today tend to be on 5% or less alcohol these days.

All I can say is that you can't taste the alcohol if that makes sense, the hops and malts etc are what you taste, so I can only put that down to the brewer and their skill.

I do wonder how they make sure this batch of beer tastes the same as previous brews, perhaps that is something I should look up?

Anyway it's a nice drink, its not a session drink, as it's far to strong for that, and I think it would cheapen it some what doing that to it, e.g making it a session beer, not that there is anything wrong with a session beer.

Still alive (mostly)

This blog is still alive, not very alive but still hanging on in there. I have found that I don't have a lot to say and as this is really me talking to me, as this blog does not get very many views from what I can tell. What do I want to say to myself at this moment in time?

See that's the problem what to talk about?

I don't have much to say to myself that I want to put here, are written blogs a very old thing now with Ticktock and such things? I don't know.

Anyway I shall try and look at this site again before the end of 2021......

Still Going

So this blog is still going...

Its just that I do not have much to say at this time as I am the only one that reads this its really more like an old notebook to me where i can jot down things I am doing or thinking about. I also post links to music that I have uploaded to YouTube.

Upload my music has become much harder as things have been altered to make it harder to upload content, (well thats what it feels like to me) I used to be able to upload in just one or two clicks, now its much much more and do I have the time for all that ?

No, I don't

so that is one of the reasons for less uploads.

So see you later

Blog I am still a live Blog....

so,

This blog is still going, not that many new posts and what gets posted is from YouTube telling you normally about a new music track that I have uploaded. it could also be a new GoPro post, if I ever work out how to post the vid from the GoPro cloud to YouTube, if there are no Go pro vids then I did not manage to work out how to upload.

The good news is that I am still creating lots of music and have a backlog of 50 tracks to upload when I now work out how to do this again, as YouTube has changes what it like and so has the main sequencing software that I use, changed how you upload, in fact it has got much harder to just upload the raw music track.

It does not help that I don't yet have proper thumb nails for my tracks or even video, well with over 700 tracks how could I make so many video's?

So the blog is alive and if I can i will post the odd text blog.
